Directions for Questions 11-14: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Disequilibrium at the interface of water and air is a factor on which the
transfer of heat and water vapor from the ocean to the air depends. The air
within about a millimeter of the water is almost saturated with water vapor
and the temperature of the air is close to that of the surface water.
Irrespective of how small these differences might be, they are crucial, and
the disequilibrium is maintained by air near the surface mixing with air
higher up, which is typically appreciably cooler and lower in water vapor
content. The turbulence, which takes its energy from the wind mixes the air.
As the speed of wind increases, so does the turbulence, and consequently
the rate of heat and moisture transfer. We can arrive at a detailed
understanding of this phenomenon after further study. The transfer of
momentum from wind to water, which occurs when waves are formed is an
interacting-and complicated phenomenon. When waves are made by the
wind, it transfers important amounts of energy-energy, which is
consequently not available for the production of turbulence.
11. This passage principally intends to:
Answer : B
12. The wind over the ocean usually does which of the following according
to the given passage?
I. Leads to cool, dry air coming in proximity with the ocean surface.
II. Maintains a steady rate of heat and moisture transfer between the ocean
and the air.
III. Results in frequent changes in the ocean surface temperature.
A. I only
B. II only
Answer : A
13. According to the author the present knowledge regarding heat and
moisture transfer from the ocean to air as
A. revolutionary
B. inconsequential
C. outdated
D. derivative
E. incomplete
Answer : E
14. According to the given passage, in case the wind was to decrease until
there was no wind at all, which of the following would occur?
A. The air, which is closest to the ocean surface would get saturated with
water vapor.
B. The water would be cooler than the air closest to the ocean surface.
C. There would be a decrease in the amount of moisture in the air closest
to the ocean surface.
D. There would be an increase in the rate of heat and moisture transfer.
E. The temperature of the air closest to the ocean and that of the air
higher up would be the same.
Answer : A
Directions for Questions 15-20: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Roger Rosenblatt's book Black Fiction, manages to alter the approach taken
in many previous studies by making an attempt to apply literary rather than
sociopolitical criteria to its subject. Rosenblatt points out that criticism of
Black writing has very often served as a pretext for an expounding on Black
history. The recent work of Addison Gayle's passes a judgement on the
value of Black fiction by clearly political standards, rating each work
according to the ideas of Black identity, which it propounds.
Though fiction results from political circumstances, its author react not in
ideological ways to those circumstances, and talking about novels and
stories primarily as instruments of ideology circumvents much of the fictional
enterprise. Affinities and connections are revealed in the works of Black
fiction in Rosenblatt's literary analysis; these affinities and connections have
been overlooked and ignored by solely political studies.
The writing of acceptable criticism of Black fiction, however, presumes giving
satisfactory answers to a quite a few questions. The most important of all, is
there a sufficient reason, apart from the racial identity of the authors, for
the grouping together of Black authors? Secondly, what is the distinction of
Black fiction from other modern fiction with which it is largely
contemporaneous? In the work Rosenblatt demonstrates that Black fiction is
a distinct body of writing, which has an identifiable, coherent literary
tradition. He highlights recurring concerns and designs, which are
independent of chronology in Black fiction written over the past eighty years.
These concerns and designs are thematic, and they come form the central
fact of the predominant white culture, where the Black characters in the
novel are situated irrespective of whether they attempt to conform to that
culture or they rebel against it.
Rosenblatt's work does leave certain aesthetic questions open. His thematic
analysis allows considerable objectivity; he even clearly states that he does
not intend to judge the merit of the various works yet his reluctance seems
misplaced, especially since an attempt to appraise might have led to
interesting results. For example, certain novels have an appearance of
structural diffusion. Is this a defeat, or are the authors working out of, or
attempting to forge, a different kind of aesthetic? Apart from this, the style
of certain Black novels, like Jean Toomer's Cane, verges on expressionism or
surrealism; does this technique provide a counterpoint to the prevalent
theme that portrays the fate against which Black heroes are pitted, a theme
usually conveyed by more naturalistic modes of expressions?
Irrespective of such omissions, what Rosenblatt talks about in his work
makes for an astute and worthwhile study. His book very effectively surveys
a variety of novels, highlighting certain fascinating and little-known works
like James Weldon Johnson's Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man. Black
Fiction is tightly constructed, and levelheaded and penetrating criticism is
exemplified in its forthright and lucid style.
15. The author of the passage raises and objection to criticism of Black
fiction like that by Addison Gayle as it:
E. Disregards the reciprocation between Black history and Black identity
exhibited in such fiction.

Directions for Questions 11-16: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Everyone conforms to infancy, infancy conforms to nobody, so that one babe
commonly makes four or five out of the adults who prattle and play to it. So
God has armed youth and puberty and manhood no less with its own
piquancy and charm, and made it enviable and gracious and its claims not to
be put by, if it will stand by itself. Do not think the youth has no force,
because he cannot speak to you and me. Hark! In the next room his voice is
sufficiently clear and emphatic. It seems he knows how to speak to his
contemporaries. Bashful or bold, then, he will know how to make us seniors
very unnecessary.
The healthy attitude of human nature can be seen in the nonchalance of
boys who are sure of a dinner, and would disdain as much as a lord to do or
say aught to conciliate one. A boy is in the parlor what the pit is in the
playhouse; independent, irresponsible, looking out from his corner on such
people and facts as pass by, he tries and sentences them on their merits, in
the swift, summary way of boys, as good, bad, interesting, silly, eloquent,
troublesome. He never cumbers himself regarding consequences, about
interests and he gives an independent, genuine verdict. You should court
him: he will not court you. But the man is, as it were, clapped into jail by his
consciousness. As soon as he has once acted or spoken with eclat, he is a
committed person, watched by the sympathy or the hatred of hundreds,
whose affections must now enter into his account. There is no Lethe for this.
Ah, that he could pass again into his neutrality.
These are the voices, which we hear in solitude, but they grow faint and
inaudible as we enter into the world. Everywhere society is conspiring
against the manhood of every one of its members. Society is joint - stock
company, in which members agree, for the better securing of his bread to
each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater. The
virtue in most request is conformity. It is averse to self-reliance. What it
loves is names and customs and not realities and creators.
Whosoever is a man has to be a nonconformist. He who would gather
immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness, but must
explore if it be goodness. Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your
own mind.
No law can be sacred to me but that of my nature. Good and bad are but
names very readily transferable to that to this; the only right is what is after
my constitution, the only right is what is after me constitution, the only
wrong what is against it. A man is to carry himself in the presence of all
opposition as if every thing were titular and ephemeral but he. I am
ashamed to think how easily we capitulate to badges and names, to large
societies and dead institutions. Every decent and well-spoken individual
affects and sways me more than is right. I ought to go upright and vital, and
speak the rude truth in all ways.
I shun father and mother and wife and brother, when my genius calls me. I
would write on the lintels of the doorpost, whim. I hope it is somewhat
better than whim at last, but we cannot spend the day in explanation.
Except me not to show cause why I seek or why I exclude company. Then,
again, do not tell me, as a good man did not to-day, of my obligation to put
all poor men in good situations. Are they my poor? I tell thee, thou foolish
philanthropist, that I grudge the dollar, the time, the cent, I give to such
men as do not belong to me and to whom I do not belong. There is a class
of person to whom by all spiritual affinity I am bought and sold; for them I
will go to prison, if need be; but your miscellaneous popular charities; the
education at collage of fools; the building of meeting - house to the vain end
to which many now stand; alms to sots; and the thousand fold Relief
Societies; - though I confess with shame I sometimes succumb and give the
dollar, it is a wicked dollar which by and by I shall have the manhood to
withhold.
If you refuse to conform, you can experience the displeasure of the world.
Hence, a man should know how to estimate a sour face. The by - standers
look askance on him in the public street or in the friend's parlor. In case this
aversion originates from contempt and resistance similar to his own, it might
result in a sad countenance; but the sour faces of the multitude, like their
sweet faces, have no deep cause, but are caused by reasons as diverse as
the direction of the wind and what he reads in the newspapers. Yet is the
discontent of the multitude more formidable than that of the senate and the
collage.
Another factor, which frightens us from self - trust in our consistency; a
reverence for our past act or word, because the eyes of others have no other
data for computing our orbit than our past acts, and we are loath to
disappoint them.
But why should you keep your head over your shoulder? Why drag about
this corpse of your memory, lest you contradict somewhat you have stated
in this or that public place? Suppose you should contradict yourself; what
then?
This is a rather silly consistency in our minds, which is adored by little
statesmen and philosophers and divines. Uniformly a great soul has almost
nothing to do, he could just occupy himself with his shadow on the wall.
Speak what you think now in hard words; and to-morrow speak what
tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict everything you
said to-day. - ''Ah, so you shall be sure to be misunderstood.'' - Is it so bad,
then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates,
and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every
pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. What can be considered to be truly
great is to be misunderstood.
11. Which of the following statements would best describe the main theme
of the above passage?
1. "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little mind."
2. "Eternal youth means eternal independence."
3. "Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist."

Answer : C
Directions for Questions 17-20: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
Certain scraps of evidence bear out those who hold a very high opinion of
the average level of culture among the Athenians of the great age. Pericles's
funeral speech is undoubtedly the most famous evidence from Athenian
literature, that its level was indeed high. However, Pericles was a politician,
and it is possible that he was flattering his audience. We know that
thousands of Athenians sat hour after hour in the theater listening to the
plays of the great Greek dramatists. The Greek plays, particularly the
tragedies, maintained an extremely high intellectual level throughout, with
no letdowns, no concessions to the lowbrows or to the demands of
''realism'', like the gravediggers scene in Shakespeare's Hamlet. The music
and dancing seen in these plays were also of an equally high level. The best
modern parallel can be seen in the restrained, difficult opera of the 18th
century. The comparison is no doubt dangerous, but can you imagine almost
the entire population of an American city (in suitable installments, of course)
sitting through performances of Mozart's Don Giovanni or Gluck's Orpheus?
Perhaps the Athenian masses went to these plays because of a lack of other
amusements. They could at least understand something of what went on,
since the subjects were part of their folklore. Undoubtedly the theme of
grand opera is not part of the folklore of the American people.
17. From the passage it is evident that the author seems to question the
sincerity of
1. politicians
2. playwrights
3. opera goers
4. ''low brows''
5. gravediggers.
Answer : A
Answer : C
19. From the passage, we can say that the author's attitude toward Greek
plays is one of
1. Qualified approval
2. Grudging admiration
3. Studied indifference
4. Partial hostility
5. Great respect.

Directions for Questions 11-16: Read the passage and answer the
questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the
passage.
The pioneers of the teaching of science imagined that its introduction into
education would remove the conventionality, artificiality, and backward-
lookingness which were characteristic;of classical studies, but they were
gravely disappointed. So, too, in their time had the humanists thought that
the study of the classical authors in the original would banish at once the
dull pedantry and superstition of mediaeval scholasticism. The professional
schoolmaster was a match for both of them, and has almost managed to
make the understanding of chemical reactions as dull and as dogmatic an
affair as the reading of Virgil's Aeneid. The chief claim for the use of science
in education is that it
teaches a child something about the actual universe in which he is
living, in making him acquainted with the results of scientific discovery, and
at the same time teaches him how to think logically and inductively by
studying scientific method. A certain limited
success has been reached in the first of these aims, but practically none
at all in the second. Those privileged members of the community who have
been through a secondary or public school education may be expected to
know something about the elementary physics and chemistry of a hundred
years ago, but they probably know hardly more than any bright boy can pick
up from an interest in wireless or scientific hobbies out of school hours. As to
the learning of scientific method, the whole thing is palpably a farce.
Actually, for the convenience of teachers and the requirements of the
examination system, it is necessary that the pupils not only do not learn
scientific method but learn precisely the reverse, that is, to believe exactly
what they are told and to reproduce it when asked, whether it seems
nonsense to them or not. The way in which educated people respond to such
quackeries as spiritualism or astrology, not to say more dangerous ones
such as racial theories or currency myths, shows that fifty years of
education in the method of science in Britain or Germany has produced no
visible effect whatever. The only way of learning the method of science is
the long and bitter way of personal experience, and, until the educational or
social systems are altered to make this possible, the best we can expect is
the production of a minority of people who are able to acquire some of the
techniques of science and a still smaller minority who are able to use and
develop them.

Directions for Questions 17-20: Read the passage and answer the
questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the
passage.
Furthermore, insofar as any conclusion about its author can be drawn
from five or six plays attributed to him, the Wakefield Master is without
exception considered to be a man of sharp contemporary observation. He
was, probably clerically educated, as indicated by his Latin and music, his
Biblical and patristic lore. Even today he is remembered for his his quick
sympathy for the oppressed and forgotten man, his sharp eye for character,
a ready ear for colloquial, vernacular turns of speech and a humor
alternately rude and boisterous, coarse and happy. Therefore in spite of his
conscious artistry as can be seen in his feeling for intricate metrical and
stanza forms, he is regarded as a kind of medieval Steinbeck, indignantly
angry at, uncompromisingly and even brutally realistic in presenting the
plight of the agricultural poor.
It is now fairly accepted to regard the play as a kind of ultimate point in
the secularization of the medieval drama. Therefore more stress has been
laid on it as depicting realistically humble manners and pastoral life in the
bleak of the west riding of Yorkshire on a typically cold night of December
24th. After what are often regarded as almost ''documentaries'' given in the
three successive monologues of the three shepherds, critics go on to affirm
that the realism is then intensified into a burlesque mock-treatment of the
Nativity. Finally as a sort of epilogue or after-thought in deference to the
Biblical origins of the materials, the play slides back into an atavistic mood
of early innocent reverence. In actuality, the final scene is the culminating
scene and also the raison d’etre of the introductory ''realism.''
Superficially the present play supports the conventional view of its mood
of secular realism. At the same time, the ''realism'' of the Wakefield Master
is of a paradoxical turn. His wide knowledge of people, as well as books
indicates no cloistered contemplative but one in close relation to his times.
Still, that life was after all a predominantly religious one, a time which never
neglected the belief that man was a rebellious and sinful creature in need of
redemption . So deeply (one can hardly say ''naively'' of so sophisticated a
writer) and implicitly religious is the Master that he is less able (or less
willing) to present actual history realistically than is the author of the Brome
Abraham and Isaac. His historical sense is even less realistic than that of
Chaucer who just a few years before had done for his own time ''costume
romances,'' such as The Knight's Tele, Troilus and Cressida, etc.
Furthermore, used highly romantic materials, which could excuse his taking
liberties with history.

Directions for Questions 11-15: Read the passage and answer the
questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the
passage.
The existence of mammals on the earth can be traced back to at least the
Triassic time. The rate of development was retarded, till evolutional change
suddenly accelerated in the oldest Paleocene. This resulted in an increase in
average size, larger mental capacity, and special adaptations for different
modes of life, during the Eocene time. Further improvement was seen during
the Oligocene Epoch, with the appearance of some new lines and extinction
of others. The Miocene and Pliocene times are especially significant as they
mark the culmination of various groups and a continued approach toward
modern characters. It is in the Miocene time that the mammals reached
their peak with reference to variety and size.
The ability of the mammals to adapt to various modes of life finds a
parallel in the reptiles of the Mesozoic time, and apart form their greater
intelligence, the mammals apparently have not done much better than the
corresponding reptilian forms. Undoubtedly the bat is a better flying animal
than the pterosaur, but at the same time the dolphin and whale are hardly
more fish like than the ichthyosaur. Quite a few of the swift-running
mammals inhabiting the plains, like the horse and the antelope, must excel
any of the dinosaurs. Although the tyrannosaur was a more weighty and
robust carnivore than perhaps any carnivorous mammal, the lion and the
tiger, by virtue of their superior brain are far more efficient and dangerous
beasts of prey. It is significant to note that various species of mammals
gradually adapted themselves to various kinds of lifestyles, some took to
grazing on the plains and were able to run swiftly (horse, deer, bison),
others started living in rivers and swamps (hippopotamus, beaver),
inhabiting trees (sloth, monkey), burrowing underground (rodent, mole),
feeding on flesh (tiger, wolf), swimming in the water (dolphin, whale, seal),
and flying in the air (bat). Human beings on account of their superior brain
have been able to harness mechanical methods to conquer the physical
world and adapt to any set of conditions.
11. From the following, choose the most appropriate title for the above
passage?
1. From Dinosaur to Man
2. Adaptation and Extinction
3. The Superior Mammals
4. The Geologic Life Span
5. Man, the Vanquisher of the Physical World.
Answer : B
12. According to the passage the chronological order of the geologic
periods is:
Answer : E
13. From the above passage, we can infer that, the pterosaur
Answer : C
14. As inferred from the passage, the largest number of mammals were
found in which of the following
periods?
15. Among the following statements, which statement, if true, would
weaken the argument put forth in the
first sentence of Paragraph 1?
1. It has been found that the tryannosaur had a larger brain, than
was previously known.
2. Within the next thousand years, mammals will become extinct.
3. Recently certain forms of flying ichthyosaurs have been
discovered.
4. It has now been proved, that the tiger is more powerful than the
carnivorous reptiles.
5. It is now possible to double human mental capacity, by the use
of certain recently developed computers.
Answer : A
Directions for Questions 16-20: Read the passage and answer the
questions that follow on the basis of the information provided in the
passage.
But man is not destined to vanish. He can be killed, but he cannot be
destroyed, because his soul is deathless and his spirit is irrepressible.
Therefore, though the situation seems dark in the context of the
confrontation between the superpowers, the silver lining is provided by
amazing phenomenon that the very nations which have spent incalculable
resources and energy for the production of deadly weapons are desperately
trying to find out how they might never be used. They threaten each other,
intimidate each other and go to the brink, but before the total hour arrives
they withdraw from the brink.
16) The main point from the author's view is that
1.
Man's soul and spirit can not be destroyed by superpowers.
2.
Human society will survive despite the serious threat of total
annihilation.
Ans : E
17) The phrase 'Go to the brink' in the passage means
1.
Ans : C
18) In the author's opinion
1.
Superpowers have at last realized the need for abandoning the
production of lethal weapons.

Directions for Questions 11-15: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage.
No effort is made to understand the reasons for these recurring disasters.
Nobody has or the time or the inclination to understand the reasons. Unless
and until we make an effort to understand these disasters will continue year
after year with ever-increasing intensity.
The paramount need of day is “information, education, and planning”.
Information would mean gathering data from all over the world about
environmental degradation, loss of forest cover or mangroves, and pollution
of all kinds. Education would mean informing the rules the mankind the
reasons for these distressed. People must be made aware of the
phenomenon of global warming. The vaporous by products of human
activities create gas, like carbon dioxide-CO2 – which traps vast amount of
heat resulting in the increase of earth’s temperature, which boosts sea-level,
shifts seasons. Unseasonal floods, rains, droughts etc. are the direct pattern
of seasons but not so under E1 Nino. Increase of two degrees in global
warming can cause a havoc. Greenhouse effect is another phenomenon,
which haunts us, incoming sunlight has an energy equivalent to about 3,100
watts bulbs per sq yard. Lower air layers, which contain a number of gases,
water vapour , CO2 and many others, trap the heat when these gases warm
up, some of the heat is radiated back to earth ‘s surface. This is broadly
known as green effect. CO2 emission accounts for 60 percent of warming
and has a life span of about 100 years in the atmosphere. Water vapour in
contrast has a life span of eight days only. Ozone-level depletion is another
cause of series concern as it causes killer cancer for which as yet there is no
cure. Once we understand the causes, it is easy to take to remedial
measures. This brings us to planning. Effluent management planning is the
dire need of the day. There should be steering committee of governmental
ministers, scientists, industries, NGOs, to devise means to develop and
install machineries to prevent major cause of polluting effluents mentioned
earlier. Within a time-bound framework, these devices must be installed,
failing which the erring industries must be closed down. No new industries
should be permitted without efficient effluent management and treatment.
Chemical pesticides should be phased out gradually. Indian farmer for
centuries depended upon organic fertilizers. Let us opt for them again.
Recently, studies showed that mother ‘s milk has DDT contents, obviously
from consuming food having agrochemicals or pesticides. The indiscriminate
use of pesticides kills both predatory and beneficial insects also. Let us bring
back use of Neem for pesticides, which kills only predatory insects, or Tulsi
for cleaning the atmosphere from suffocating pollution. Planting these trees
on war footing in the urgent need of the day. A country needs more than 30
percent forest cover. Trees retain water in soil and act as buffers against the
waves. They are necessary for maintaining the regular cycle of seasons.
India has less than 20 percent of forest cover. All this is possible if we opt
for information technology. Vast sources of information are available. Let us
use them to bring the knowledge to the doorstep of a common man, the
executive, the politicians and the judiciary. Environment is a finely-tuned
and extremely well –balanced ecological mechanism. Flora and fauna, birds,
animals and, of course, humans play a vital role. Touch one adversely and
all suffer. We are courting irreversible disaster. We have turned our back on
Nature. Let us go back to Nature- at least for our survival.

Directions for Questions 17-20:
One recent example of industrial hyper growth has taken place in the
recycling industry, led by the rapid expansion of the recycled paper market.
Though many laws were enacted in the late 1980s to encourage (and in
some cases require) the collection of waste paper for recycling, there were
not, at that time, companies with sufficient capacity to recycle it all.
Consequently the collected paper accumulated in storage, usually at the
expense of the recycling companies, thereby adding to their overhead and
squeezing their already thin profit margins. Today a different situation
exists. Fifty-seven new paper mills have been built since 1991, and of these,
at least twenty-nine use recycled fiber. This surge in capacity has resulted in
a concurrent rise in profits. The price per Ton of waste paper has quadrupled
in the past year, as have the prices of corrugated cardboard and used
newsprint. Trash haulers have benefited from these conditions by combining
their trash hauling and recycling operations. Recycling centers are connected
both to the clients to whom they sell end products and to those from whom
they collect refuse; thus, the company gets paid twice for the same trash,
once for hauling the waste and once for selling the usable material. Industry
profits have increased more than tenfold during this period. As the industry
has become more competitive, some haulers have chosen to rebate a
portion of this money to their clients in the hopes of ensuring their loyalty.
17. According to the passage, which of the following is a reason for the
increase in profits in the trash hauling business?
18. It can be inferred from the passage that the price of waste paper
19. The author of the passage would most likely agree with which of the
following?
A. Competition between trash haulers and recyclers will prevent the
recycled paper industry from reaching its full
economic potential.
B. Pressure from anti-environmental groups has increased pressure on
the government to oppose recycled paper
initiatives.
C. The recycled paper industry may continue to grow at its present rate
as long as the industry remains profitable.
D. The profit-seeking of recyclers have overshadowed environmental
concerns in the recycled paper industry.
E. Government negligence prevented the recycled paper industry from
becoming successful until the early 1990’s.

D) Garret
Directions for Questions 16-20: Read the passage and answer the questions
that follow on the basis of the information provided in the passage. Dynamic
Link Libraries Windows provides several files called dynamic link libraries
(DLLs) that contain collections of software code that perform common
functions such as opening or saving a file. When Windows application wants
to use one of those functions or routines, the app sends a message to
Windows with the names of the DLL file and the function. This procedure is
known as calling a function. One of the most frequently used DLLs is
Windows COMMDLG.DLL, which includes among others, the functions to
display File Open, File Save, Search, and Print dialog boxes.
The application also sends any information the DLL function will need to
complete the operation. For example, a program calling the Open File
function in COMMDLG.DLL would pass along a file spec, such as *. * or
*.DOC, to be displayed in the dialog box's Filename text box. The application
also passes along a specification for the type of information it expects the
DLL to return to the application when the DLL's work is done. The
application, for example, may expect return information in the form of
integers, true/false values, or text. Windows passes the responsibility for
program execution to the DLL, along with the parameters and the return
information the DLL will need. The specific DLL is loaded into memory, and
then executed by the processor. At this point the DLL, rather than the
application, runs things. The DLL performs all the operations necessary to
communicate with Windows and, through Windows, with the PC's hardware.
After the DLL function is complete, the DLL puts the return information into
memory, where it can be found by the application, and instructs Windows to
remove the DLL routine from memory. The application inspects the return
information, which usually tells whether the DLL function was able to
execute correctly. If the operation was a success, the application continues
from where it left off before issuing the function call. If the operation failed,
the application displays an error message.
19) According to the passage, while the DLL routine is executing, the calling
application:
A) Waits for the routine to execute
B) Continues with other tasks
C) Helps the DLL routine perform by communicating with Windows and
through Windows with the PC's hardware
D) Passes all responsibility of program execution to the DLL and is removed
from memory

37. In a file A...Z characters are written.if we open the file using fopen
and
lseek(fp,-10,2);
c=getc(fp);
printf("%c",c);
what will be the output.?
Ans . Y.(please verify Here last parameter is the integer value to
seel_end
38. Same question with
lseek(fp,10,0);
c=getc(fp);
printf("%c",c);
ans. 11th character will be printed "K" verify.
39. Theory question about far pointers.
Hint: Far pointers are 4 bytes in size and local pointers are 2 bytes in
size. important: i saw in a previous question paper of accenture which is in
the chetana database, some lady wrote that size of an integer in C is 2 bytes
and for C++ it is 4 bytes. This is absurd.The size of types is entirely
dependent on the compiler used.for DOS Turbo C sizeof int is 2 and float is 4
bytes for windows borland C,C++ size of int is 4 bytes for linux gcc, size of
int is 2 bytes. All these depends on the Operating system.Please keep this in
mind.
40. Now some questions about extern variables.
41. #include
main()
{
char str[]={"hell"};
int i;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)
printf("%c%c%c%c\n",str[i],i[str],*(str+i),*(i+str));
getch();
}
ans.
hhhh
eeee
llll
llll
note that str[i] and i[str] are the same.in the question paper, the original
word is "hello".
42. Which of the following is not defined in string.h
strtod,memchr,strspn,strchr
ans . strtod.(defined in STDLIB.H) it is used to convert a string to double.
43. Questions on macros with arguments .same pattern given in TEST UR
C SKILLS
eg.#define SQUARE(x) x*x
main()
{
.......
y=SQUARE(2+3);
printf("%d",y);
}
ans. when the macro expands we get 2+3*2+3 = 2+6+3 =11.11 is the
correct answer not 25.
44. Remember an inline function does type checking and so it is better
than a macro a question on this.
45. Some memory is allocated using memalloc and then realloc is called.
and now to write the size of the variable.better learn memalloc and realloc.
what it does and syntax.
